Click on the matching result (as shown in the image below).
Once inside the User Account Control Settings, locate the slider that moves up and down.
Move the slider all the way down to the lowest setting.
Click OK to apply the changes (as shown in the image below).
By following these steps, you can successfully disable UAC when necessary.
If you encounter issues, ensure you have administrative privileges.
